Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book introduces an innovative approach to understanding the origins and evolution of human technology. One of the first to apply the ideas of evolution to human creativity, this book brings together essays by Colonel Lane Fox that analyze the development of tools, clothing, and weapons from their simplest forms to complex ones, demonstrating the continuity between the arts of prehistoric and modern people. The author argues that objects made by modern "savage" tribes (the term he uses) preserve in their forms clues to the development of tools and weapons of prehistoric people—even those of the earliest humans. He was one of the first to suggest that the basic idea of the bow and arrow may have originated with simple bows used as musical instruments, and was refined gradually over thousands of years. This book is a key text in the development of the concept of the evolution of technology and one that continues to be referenced today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
